THE SECOND DAY'S COURT.
The UsKsd 8Uies Court Hu l Di l
: ' 1 Actiutttili. -There
was the usual 'transaction of
business in the Federal court yesterday
but it was not the kind of business that
the prosecution likes to see on record.
It will be noticed that a verdict of "not
guilty' waa rendered in all cases ex
cept one.' The cause for these is in
sufficient evidence although more than
ordinary diligence was used in collect
ing that evidence, - The Jury in the case
of Charles Haynes for sending obscene
matter through the mail brought in a
verdict of not guilty Monday nights
Other cases heard yesterday were:
U. S. vs George Franks, retailing
liquor without paying special tax; not
guilty. .",,.. , ..." j
United States vs P. S. and Chester
Mizell, removing and concealing liquors
on which tax had not been paid. . --
U. S. vs Foster Williams, retailing
liquors; not guilty. , .;
U. S. vs R, E. Jones; illicit distillery
not guilty.
U. S. vs Washington Brown, remov-fthe
ing and concealing spirituous lipuors on
which the tax had not been paid. A
habeas corpus proceeding was heard in
the case of- C. D. Jones,, collector of
Lcustoms at Beaufort - He was indicted
under the State law for violation of the
immigrant law by importing labor
without a license to do so. The sheriff
of Carteret was required to bring Mr.
Jones to this city for hearing of the
proceeding. The defendant was re
leased. :

SENSATIONAL SHOOTING.
GoldiberoHit a Ssml-Trigedy Which Af.
? ' Jectt Wall Ksewa Pteplt,
"About 9 o'clock Monday night Mr.
Arnold Borden, a cotton buyer of Golds
boro was shot and dangerously wounded
by K. L, Edmundson , a merchant
Both men are prominent and have fam
ilies. -
The reports of the events leading up
to the shooting are conflicting. Some
say that Mr. Borden and Mr; Edmund
son had some words a short time back
just after a number of gentlemen were
at the .last term of court for card I
playing. 1 Mr. Edmundson was a mem
ber df the grand jury and it is thought
Iby some that he was responsible for
the presentments of the gambling cases
to that body. He however.has repeat
edly denied that he had anything to do
with bringing the ' casej before the
court. Others say that Mr. Edmund
son waa sore over the fact that he was
defeated for alderman -at the last muni
cipal contest which was decided a few
days ago, and was of the opinion that
gentlemen who were fined had it in
for him and used their influence to de
feat him because of his action as grand
juror.
At any rate Monday evening, so the
story goes, Mr. 'Edmundson walked up
to Mr. Borden who was standing near
the depot and placed his hand on his
shoulder. Mr. Borden replied "I don't
care to have anything to do with you.
I dont want to be contaminated by you.
Mr. ' Edmundson then replied: "We
will be as two men hereafter." Then
Mr. Borden struck- him and Mr. Ed
mundson pulled his pistol and fired.
At 2.46 yesterday afternoon, the doc-
jtor in charge of Mr. Borden's case
stated that he was shot twice and that
both balls were in the body at that
time. One ball penetrated the right
lung. The second bullet entered the
body under the right arm pit The
wounds are serious but not thought to
be necessarily fatal. On the arrival
of the train last night the Journal was
informed that Mr. Borden's condition
still remained precarious and the out-

Locally the men are known by a num
